Your #1 Online Resource for Personal and Spiritual Growth Since 2000.

Welcome!

Live a fuller life, joyfully, with love.

Welcome to Soulful Living!

I’m so pleased that your soulful journey has brought you here! My name is Valerie Rickel, and I’m the founder, creator and soul of SoulfulLiving.com, an inspirational website devoted to personal growth, spiritual development, self help, and self improvement.

In September 1999, I was grieving the loss of my father and had been searching the internet for comfort and healing, but there were very few resources available online at the time. I felt a deep knowing in my heart that I was being “called” to create a website that would offer healing and inspiration to people around the globe.

So, I set about pouring my love and grief into this purposeful life project, and at the stroke of midnight on January 1, 2000, I launched SoulfulLiving.com in memory of my father and in honor of our new millennium. Creating SoulfulLiving.com is my soulful life purpose, and it has been one of the most meaningful, joyous, and wondrous experiences of my lifetime. I know, without a doubt, that sharing my passion and love for living a soulful life is why I was put here on this earth.

Please make yourself at home while you explore our website’s many pages and resources. Sit back, pour a cup of tea, and be inspired… There’s much to see and experience! You’ll find a wonderful collection of archived articles from hundreds of authors who have contributed their wisdom to SoulfulLiving.com over the past 16 years.

I hope you’ll also explore my new personal coaching and mentoring program, “Dream It. Begin It.” It is a unique opportunity to work with me, one-on-one, for a deep-dive into your heart and soul to discover your life purpose and deepest soul dreams, and put passion, purpose, and action together to manifest them in the world!

And, you can look forward to much more exciting growth at SoulfulLiving.com this year… Soon, we will be introducing an exciting new Soulful Classroom and eCourse Program and posting an abundance of wonderful new content and wisdom from many more of your favorite authors.
